I'm going to do a group buy on these $99 Uniden UHF radios that we use on cruises and stuff.

put your hand up if you are serious about getting one, im going to push for $90, need 10 people or more.

The buy should occur in one month (early november)

only reply if you are SERIOUS.

these things are really handy on cruises/saturday night at the gold coast (street racers go on the same channel) etc

Err... Don't get the $78 one..

It sucks. For one it's got less features (Probably about one less) and two it takes 3 AAA batteries. You can get AA batteries from supercheap .. a pack of 4 for $1. Cheap as chips.

$78 isn't on special. That's how much they are week after week to buy.

THIS is the one you want.

NIZ30.. This cb is only used for cruises and the like to keep in contact with everyone about when the poo is on the stick, or the cops are in the pen (In otherwords, when the cops are around) or split second decisions on where to go..

If you want one that will go further, you will have to buy a more powerful unit that sits in your car. We have a little hand held as well as the car unit. The car unit (which also has 20 scanner channels) cost us $580 or some crap which we dont really use unless we are out on a cruise.. which mind you the little uniden hand helds do just fine :D

Pfft.. I understand it :)

Yeah Slip ya **** put me down for one. But we should be able to get a better deal than $90 for a bulk buy. Firstly ask them for how much for ten....get that price. Then ask now how much for cash?.... And then ask why are they THAT price? You will be surprised how much money you can save....

I just got $40 a tyre off each tyre for the tyres on the 4wd by doing that.. It does work.

Cheers Shitlips

    • I know this one’s the BB one. My tuner did make mention about the actuator. I am curious about the VCT as well
    • Might also needs a stronger actuator with the right preloading. With older 2019 built bush G3 units, BB upgrade or 21U housing down size makes a pretty decent gain in response as well. 
    • Hey lads  so im finally putting together my rb30 forged bottom end and ran into an issue. I measured my main bearing clearance with arp main studs torqued to 60 ft-lbs using ACL H series STD size bearings and standard, un-ground crank shaft journals and got an oil clearance reading of about 1.3 thou measuring straight up and down and about 2.8 thou measuring at a 45 degree angle (just above and below the parting line). My machine shop said they measured the main tunnel and it was all within spec (they didnt say the actual measurement) and to go with a standard size bearing, which i have done and the clearance is too tight, I'm guessing because of the extra clamping force from the arp studs distorting the main tunnel. I was wanting to run about 2.5 thou main bearing clearance.  My questions are: 1. could i just use the HX extra 1 thou clearance ACL bearings? that would fix my straight up and down clearance making it about 2.3 thou, but then would the side to side clearance be too big at around 3.8 thou? 2. what actually is the recommended main bearing clearance for measuring near the parting line / side to side. i know its supposed to be bigger as the bearing has some eccentricity built into it but how much more clearance should there be compared to the straight up and down measurement? at the moment there is about 1.5thou difference, is that acceptable or should it be less? 3. If i took the engine block + girdle back to the machine shop and got them to line bore the main tunnel (like i told them to do the first time, but they said it didnt need it) what bearing size would i buy? the STD size bearing shells already slide in fairly easily with no real resistance, some even falling out if i tip the girdle up-side-down. If im taking material out of the main tunnel would i need a bearing with extra material on the back side to make up for it? this is probably confusing af to read so if something doesn't make sense let me know and ill try explaining in a different way. My machine shop doesn't come back from christmas break until mid January, hence why i'm asking these questions here. TIA for any help or info 
    • I bought the model back in Japan in Feb. I realised I could never build it, looked around for people who could build it, turns out there's some very skilled people out there that will make copies of 1:1 cars or near enough. I'm not really a photo guy... but people were dragging me in a group chat for the choice of bumper as someone else saw the car before it was finished as they are also a customer of that shop. I took the photo in the above post because I was pretty confident that the lip would work wonders for it. Here's some more in-progress and almost-done pics. It gives a good enough idea as to what the rear looks like!   I have also booked in a track day at the end of January. Lets all hope that is nothing but pure fun and games. If it's not pure fun and games, well, I've already got half an engine spare in the cupboard 
    • Well, do ya, punk? Seriously though, let's fu<king go! The colour and kit looks amazing on the car. Do you have any shots from the rear? I don't quite follow how the model came around. You bought the white kit and he modified it to match your car? Looks nuts either way!
